List insights
Numbers below are counted from this exact list — use them to pick a word that also fits your other clues.
- Strong openers here: ALERT, ALTER, LATER, STARE, LASER, ARISE — recognisable words that cover a lot of common letters. More in best starting words.
- 3,599 of 5,205 use no repeated letters (e.g. ABETS, ABHOR, ABIDE, ABIES, ABLED, ABLER) — these test more of the alphabet per guess. See words with no repeated letters.
- Most vowels (4): AALII, ADIEU, AECIA, AERIE, AIDOI, AINEE. Vowel-heavy guesses lock down the trickiest slots early — see words with many vowels.
- 478 contain a double letter (e.g. AAHED, AALII, AARGH, AARTI, ABBAS, ABBED) — worth remembering when a letter feels “used up.” See words with double letters.
- 565 of 5,205 are common Puzzico answers (e.g. ABOUT, ABOVE, ACORN, ACTOR, ACUTE, ADAPT, ADEPT, ADMIN) — the rest are valid but rarer guesses, so lean on these when you think you are close.
Want to match several clues at once? The Word Solver filters 5-letter words containing A by correct, misplaced and absent letters together.

How to use this list
